A Slice of Thanksgiving: The Limited Edition Pumpkin Pie PEZ Dispenser is Here!

For years, PEZ collectors—especially those 

in the U.S.—have expressed their desire 

for a holiday dispenser dedicated to Thanksgiving.

This year, PEZ Candy Inc. has finally answered

 that request with a festive and fitting addition:

 the limited edition 

Thanksgiving Pumpkin Pie 

PEZ dispenser.

Pumpkin pie, a symbol of American tradition, 

is a beloved dessert made from pumpkins 

and seasonal spices like cinnamon, 

ginger, and nutmeg. 

It's enjoyed in many variations, 

particularly around Halloween and Thanksgiving—

and this new PEZ dispenser even comes topped 

with a dollop of whipped cream!

To add to the holiday spirit, the dispenser's stem 

is printed with a cheerful 

"Happy Thanksgiving" 

in a festive font, making it even more 

special for the occasion.

 With the Pumpkin Pie PEZ dispenser, 

collectors can now expand their 

"PEZ Treats" 

And now, get the new dispenser here. 

(USA only)

It’s time to enjoy the pie! Mmm...

"Exclusive Sneak Peek: PEZ Wedding Candies on a Limited Edition Promo Blistercard!"

The PEZ wedding range boasts 26 

exquisite products that have captured the 

hearts of couples in German-speaking countries. 

This success can be attributed, 

in part, to a robust marketing budget from PEZ that was used 

to promoting this charming collection.

 Through engaging online campaigns, 

stunning photo and video shoots, 

and eye-catching appearances at wedding fairs,

 PEZ is reaching out to prospective brides 

and grooms, and making a lasting impression. 

This January, we had the pleasure of visiting PEZ at the

 Air & Love Wedding Fair in Vienna, 

where we were immediately enchanted by 

the remarkable, almost life-sized 

PEZ bride and groom dsigned specifically 

for the wedding fairs. (learn here more)

 

This Weekend, PEZ’s marketing team introduced

 a delightful initiative at the 

"HochzeitsWelt" wedding fair in Wels-Upper Austria, 

conveniently located near the PEZ headquarters. 

Attendees who purchased entry tickets were

 treated to a goodie bag upon arrival,

 and of course, PEZ was a featured inclusion!

 This clever strategy not only engages potential

 customers but also ensures that PEZ 

remains memorable for couples planning their special day.

 

We’re thrilled to offer you an exclusive 

first look at a newly designed 

PEZ promotional Wedding blister card that will 

particularly delight PEZ candy collectors worlwide.

This beautifully designed card features the 

PEZ wedding candies for the first time on card now,

 and it aims to encourage purchases in 

the PEZ online shop, where a special discount 

code offers 10% off all PEZ wedding favorites.

In the spirit of fairness, we’ve obscured the

 discount code with lovely pink roses,

 allowing PEZ to assess the success of this campaign.

SUPER HARD TO GET!

Keep an eye out for this promotional 

Wedding PEZ blister card, 

as it will not be available for purchase 

in stores or through the PEZ online shop.

The only option for us, is to hope 

that future wedding couples will list the 

candies online on any auction platform,

 to earn a little extra money for their wedding budget.

Regular PEZ Wedding Candies, different packages available here.

The promo PEZ Wedding blister card is sure 

to be a treasured and unique item.

PEZ Treats Welcomes the Avocado: A Superfood Addition to the Fun Treats Lineup!

With the PEZ Treats range, 

PEZ has created a trendy and fun 

line of dispensers, designed in-house, 

that captures the spirit of the times. 

This playful series features popular 

food-themed designs.

The avocado, hailed as a superfood for

 its rich content of vitamins B,

 potassium, and magnesium, 

is both healthy and delicious. 

It's no wonder that this fan-favorite 

will soon join the PEZ Treats family.

Starting in January 2025, PEZ Candy Inc. (USA)

will release the avocado dispenser, 

adding to the existing lineup of 

popcorn, cupcake, pizza, taco, 

and burger dispensers. 

The avocado will be available in both a blister pack 

and a twin pack, paired with the Taco PEZ dispenser.

We've also updated the PEZ Treats pictorial

for you, showcasing all the dispensers released to date.

We can't wait to add the new Avocado 

to the PEZ Treats family!

Surprise! Celebrate Christmas in July with PEZ: Exclusive Hawaiian Santa Dispenser with hibiscus and palm printed stem! Now Available!

According to legend, Christmas in July originated

 at a summer camp in 1933 when Keystone

 Camp in Brevard, N.C., decided to dedicate

 two days (July 24 and 25) to the holiday.

 The festivities included cotton fake snow, 

a decked-out tree, a gift exchange,

 and, naturally, Santa.

It gained traction in pop culture in 1940

 with the release of the movie 

"Christmas in July" 

Over the years, the phrase slowly gained popularity.

The concept of 

"Christmas in July" 

became so popular that retailers began using it, 

making it a worldwide phenomenon.

As the Christmas spirit emerges once again 

in the middle of summer this July 25th,

 PEZ has something new in store for the occasion this year.

Santa Claus, sporting a pair of sunglasses, 

brings us the necessary summer vibes 

with his Hawaiian-themed dispenser & card.

You can now order this dispenser

 as an online exclusive.  

You can find it (here) Pez International. (Europe only)

USA on pez.com already sold out!

BEST OF 2022! OUR 2022 PEZ PICTORIAL

 Unbelievable how fast time flies, 

2022 is gone, it was a challenging year for everyone!

PEZ also had to do some special tasks, 

delays in the supply chain, 

global price increases are just a few of the 

challenges they had to face.

Nevertheless, they again had a lineup that leaves

 nothing to be desired, again more then 

100 new dispensers for our collection.

PEZ knows how to captivate everyone 

and offers dispensers for the whole family and all age groups.

It has been a tradition for us since 2014 that we close the 

last year with an annual PEZ pictorial to give you a 

precise overview or a help list of which dispensers 

have appeared in the last year.

As in previous years, 

PEZ Candy Inc. was ahead in 2022, 

with 85 new dispensers for the USA 

and 53 new dispensers for Europe, 

our American PEZ friends definitely have the better cards.

A second vision that particularly strikes us, 

never before have there been so many 

online only/exclusives dispensers as in 2022.

To describe it in more detail, 

a total of 16 dispensers that were only sold online 

(with Money Heist) 

of which 7 dispensers were only available 

from PEZ Candy Inc. (USA).

PEZ apparently liked it, especially since each of 

us bought something to go with the online-only dispenser.

We can definitely expect something 

special for Valentine's Day, Easter, etc. again in 2023.

We would also like to use our post to 

thank PEZ for a great 2022 year, 

for the great spirit they have, 

to all the creative minds, 

and the marketing experts, 

to the graphic designers, 

to everyone who packs and sends our parcels.

But before we share our 2022 pictorial 

with you, here you can find all our other 

pictorials that we have put together for you over the year:

PEZHEAD OF THE YEAR 2022! Congratulation Rick M.

In 2017 I was lucky enough to get to know 

Rick M. personally and he immediately impressed me with

his open and communicative manner, 

not only that he is a 

very friendly and lovable person,

 no, he gives you the feeling that you really do 

get along been friends for years. 

 

Rick M is known to many as the host of the 

world's largest PEZAMANIA PEZ Convention 

and there could not have been a better time to salute him,

and mark his final as the PEZAMANIA Convention Organiser, 

with the PHOTY trophy for all the love and 

amazing work he has done the past few years.

 

  As many of you may remember, last year 2021

 I was awarded with the PEZ Head of the Year trophy.

It is the highest award the community can give and

 I am so happy that the trophy is now changing

 from me to my dear friend Rick.

 

Dear Rick, thank you so much for all the great 

work you and Sue have done for so many 

PEZ collectors, you so much deserve the trophy.

 

 

BIG CHANGE IN 2023 !  

With the last PEZAMANIA event held by Rick, 

it also means a big change for the event itself.

 

  NEW SPIRIT!  

Landon P and Morgan R, familiar to all of us from 

the much-loved Virtual PEZ Convention,

 together take on the challenging task 

of serving as hosts for the PEZAMANIA Convention.  

The young dynamic team has already set milestones 

in the organization of the VPC and the 

Chartity campaigns they have set up are really impressive.  

 

Welcome Landon and Morgan as new hosts,

thank you for 

taking on such a responsible job.  

I'm sure you'll do it brilliantly!

Netflix Money Heist PEZ Dispenser(s) coming in September?!....

 When the new PEZ Internatinal email newsletter (Europe) 

landed in our inbox on Friday, 

all of our gazes focused on a certain picture.

 

Something mega exciting was announced by 

PEZ International with an unrecognizable picture 

for September 2021.

Curiosity kills us every time ;D 

and prompted us to take a closer look 

at the matter and share our information with you.

Please note: Photoshop image, this ist not the real dispenser!
Pictures are from google images.

Why are we so firmly convinced of it?

What are the pros?

 

As with Stranger Things, Dreamworks Spirit, and the 

new The Office dispensers (September USA release), 

these are Netflix Original Series, 

PEZ and Netflix like to go a common path with the 

publication of the dispensers or the

 acquisition of the licenses.

According to Netflix, Money Heist was at 

times the most internationally-watched 

non-English-language series on Netflix.

The series has generated a lot of talk and 

was celebrated iconically across Europe.

Own Money Heist online stores and various 

merch products are offered worldwide.

The series fits perfectly with the iconic PEZ image!

 

Many enthusiastic fans are already waiting for 

the beginning of the 5th season (also the last season), 

which will be broadcast at the beginning of September 2021, 

so the announced release date from PEZ Int.

 fits perfectly with the start of the new season.

 

And to go back to the PEZ picture mentioned above, 

the dispensers are not clearly visible, 

but what can be seen is that the dispensers are red 

and have something like hoods over their heads, 

which also corresponds to the characters of the series.

Gregor P from the PEZ Info Austria FB group found another clue, 

the photo was given the file name

 "LCDP teaser” 

by PEZ International, which cannot be a coincidence, 

as the original title of the series is 

LA CASA DE PAPEL.

We are convinced that the marketing team 

from PEZ International will soon sweeten 

our lives with further teasers until the final appearance.

Until then we all have to be patient!  

Happy Collecting!

PHOTY 2021! Thank you of the bottom of my Heart!

 

Even a few days after my win, my feelings 

are still indescribable.

I would like to take this opportunity again to say 

thank you from the bottom of my heart ....

How it all started ... 

a few days before PEZAMANIA took place, 

I was invited to a Zoom Meeting on a false pretext, 

I only received a few keywords ...

 

To be honest, actually I'm not a big fan of the zoom meetings, 

that's why I had never attended one before.

It was about one o'clock in the morning

when I received the link for the meeting, actually 

I was already relatively tired but still looking foward

 to the meeting and then we started ...

 

Then the big surprise - 

suddenly I was the center of attention. 

I was having a hard time following all the participants 

because the sound quality wasn't the very best, 

but when my name was dropped as PHOTY and almost all of the previous PHOTY were there,

I was completely lost, 

of course, and thought I was going to faint. :)

 

Due to the distance, the time difference 

and because I unfortunately had no opportunity to be present 

at PEZAMANIA, the committee decided to inform me 

via the zoom metting in advance.

 

Of course I had to promise that I wasn't allowed to 

reveal anything until Pezamania. 

That was also a great gesture, 

so I was able to prepare a little what I really wanted to say.

Then the big day, I got a video call at midnight my time 

and was able to watch the announcement live.

It was so breathtaking!

As already mentioned in my speech live at PEZAMANIA.

 

It was neither my goal and I, did never in my life have 

expected to be able and namend on the list with 

all these wonderful PHOTY winners and to become the 

first international winner. 

That fills me with pride and my emotions 

cannot be expressed in words.

 

This will always be a very special moment in my life.

 

It was maybe a surprise for one or the other 

and a bit disturbing and weird, 

a collector has been honored who could not be present, 

who is somewhere 10,000 kilometers away from us 

and who speaks to us via mobile phone ........ 

and yet all of these is again the best evidence for it ...

PEZ and our hobby have no limits!

 

PEZ and our hobby bring people together, 

no matter where, 

no matter what skin, color,

 religion, weight, gender, sexual orientation, 

political opinion, 

we all love and share the 

same beloved hobby!

We all have found friends trough our hobby, 

we feel, celebrate, cry and share our worries together,

 all of this and everyone of you makes 

our hobby so special, and I'm so happy to be a part of it!

From the beginning it was important to me to bundle 

all information on the blog. 

With all the different social media channels 

it is easy to lose the overview and flow of information.

The top priority for me was always to approach new collectors. 

The credo was, if you bring a new collector to our hobby, 

then you have already won. 

This credo has and will always motivate me!

 

I woud like to thank the committee 

and all the wonderful 23! previous PHOTY winners!

YOU GUYS ROCK!!!

 

My dear Co-host from the Blog, 

my lovely Krissy who always belived in me 

and to my two VIP buddies Willi and Yasin.

Without you I would never win this wonderful award!

I want to get on with the thanks and woud like to thank 

PEZ International and PEZ Candy Inc. 

for always securing you :) 

and Momopez for allowing me to always use his pictures.

Thank you very much!

 

At the end I would like to dedicate my 

award to all of you, 

each and every one of you deserves it, 

because if you share pictures and videos, 

your newcomers, 

the new releases or your thoughts, 

a podcast, 

a virtual convention, 

or a Gathering with us in the communities, 

all of this will give our beloved hobby SPIRIT!

Thank you for all your work you do!

I would also like to thank you again for the many 

worldwide congratulations and encouragement. I

 have to say honestly that it is really good for the soul.

Let yourself be hugged tightly and thank 

you very much again for everything.

To the best hobby in the world!

Happy Collecting!

 PEZ MAKES YOU SMILE!
